Investors need information in making decisions
about their investments. Information for this
purpose may be found in the financial statements.
This information can be broken down into ratios
which makes it easier for the investor to
understand the financial statements. This study
sought to find a relationship between Share
Performance and Investment ratios of companies
quoted on the Nairobi stock Exchange. It is
indicative from the study that a relationship
exists between ratios and Share Prices. Multiple
regression analysis was used to establish the
relationship between seven variables and share
prices were used in the analysis. The relationship
was found to be quite strong (r2 of 84% and 89%).
The conclusion was that is a strong
relationship between investment ratios and share
prices of companies quoted on the Nairobi stock
Exchange.
